Diverticulosis is the inflammation of diverticula.

Diverticulitis can be harmful and may require surgery.

Low-fiber diets are linked to the formation of polyps in the colon.

Most polyps in the colon become cancerous.

Colorectal cancer can form metastasis in other organs.

Hepatitis can cause fatty liver and inflammation of the liver.

Fibrosis is a reversible stage of liver damage.

Gallstones are more common in men and in developing countries.

Cholecystectomy is the removal of the pancreas.

After cholecystectomy, a low-fat diet is usually recommended.

True or false: A portal triad in the liver contains a bile duct, a branch of the hepatic vein, and a branch of the hepatic artery.

True or false: Blood and bile flow in the same direction through the liver.

True or false: The gallbladder stores, concentrates, and propels bile into the duodenum.

True or false: The pancreas has both endocrine and exocrine functions.

True or false: Tooth decay is caused by bacteria in the mouth that produce acids which attack the enamel.

True or false: Acid reflux occurs when acid comes back up from the stomach into the esophagus.

True or false: Ulcers are most commonly found in the stomach and are often caused by an infection of Helicobacter pylori.

True or false: Diverticula are out-pockets of the intestinal wall and are most common in the sigmoid colon.

True or false: Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, typically caused by fecal matter obstructing the appendix.
